How to get an object's methods?

Question

Is there a method or propertie to get all methods from an object? For example:

function foo() {} foo.prototype.a = function() {} foo.prototype.b = function() {}  foo.get_methods(); // returns ['a', 'b']; 

UPDATE: Are there any method like that in Jquery?

Thank you.

Answer 1

function getMethods(obj) {     var res = [];     for(var m in obj) {         if(typeof obj[m] == "function") {             res.push(m)         }     }     return res; } 

Answer 2

Remember that technically javascript objects don't have methods. They have properties, some of which may be function objects. That means that you can enumerate the methods in an object just like you can enumerate the properties. This (or something close to this) should work:

var bar for (bar in foo) {     console.log("Foo has property " + bar); } 

There are complications to this because some properties of objects aren't enumerable so you won't be able to find every function on the object.
